ALISHA MKE-D Electronics Package For 3D Printed Iron Man Costume/Cosplay

Description: A.L.I.S.H.A. MKE-D (w/DFPlayer MP3 Player) Arduino ESP32-C3 LED & Integrated Servo Helmet Actuator version MKE-D is a simple to install Arduino ESP32-C3 shield module that allows DIY people to easily motorize, light up and have sound effects for your favorite 3D printed Iron Man helmet or any other helmets (i.e. Batman, Spiderman, Gray Fox, etc.) ***The Board needs to be powered with a USB powerbank, example: 5v (2.1A) -or- 5v (2.4A) -or- 5v (3A). DO NOT USE ?AA? OR ?AAA? BATTERY PACK, THEY CAN DAMAGE THE BOARD*** The board has the following ports available for a variety of helmet and suit features:USB Power In (power only, no data)Power InPower OutAux Power2 Input Switches3 Servos2 LED eyes2 NeoPixelSpeakerGyroscope ***Recommended operating voltage between 5v-6v (not to exceed 6v due to MG90S servos.)*** *** USB cable, Servos and LED eyes not included. Each LED port has a 100? (ohm) current limiting resistor. Full documentation and instructions can be found on the Thingiverse Crash Works 3D page & Crash Works 3D GitHub Page. Board size: 47mm x 50mm Includes:ESP32-C3 moduleDFPlayer Sound module (SD-Card not included)MKE-D board with JST-XH female pin headers for easy jumper wire connection3 - JST 3-pin headers for easy jumper wire connection to Servos1 - JST 2-pin headers for easy jumper wire connection to Power In & Power Out Ports2 - JST 3-pin headers for easy jumper wire connection to LEDs and Input Switch1 - JST 2-pin headers for easy jumper wire connection to speaker1 - audio jack for easy connection to external powered speakers1 - JST 2-pin power jumper cable Cable descriptions:Two 3-pin wired connectors for your servos; they are color coded (Black = Ground / Red = + / Yellow = S). **MG90s servos S = Orange**One 2-pin wired connector for your power input & power output. (Red = + / Black = Ground) One 2-pin wired connector for your switch input (Either Green wire set or a Blue wire set) *** Switch input is not polarity sensitive***Two 3-pin wired connectors for your LEDs (Red = + / Black = Ground)One 2-pin wired connector for your speaker** Note: If you ordered the Walsh MK85 helmet there will be 3 servo cables. During normal operation with a single USB Power Bank, ***DO NOT REMOVE*** the power jumper wire that is connected to the ?AUX Power? and ?Power Out? ports. The board can be powered with a mini-USB connected to the top-left side of the board ?or- using the ?Power-in? connection on the top-left side of the board with the included 2-pin wired connector. If using the ?PENELOPE? board with the ALISHA board, connect the ?Power out? from ?PENELOPE? to the 2-pin ?Power In? on the board. *** Do not power the board by plugging a USB cable directly into the ESP32-C3*** ***Dual USB Power Bank Operation*** If a second USB power bank is used, to support powering higher voltage servos and/or a large number of NeoPixels. You need to remove the jumper wire that connects to the ?AUX Power'' and ?Power Out? port. Then connect a second USB Power bank to the ?Aux Power? port, this allows the second USB power bank to power to the Servo and NeoPixel Ports. The ?Power-out? port on the top middle of the board can be used to power something externally if you choose, it will output the same amount of power as provided by the USB power bank connected to either the ?USB Power In? or ?Power In'' port on the board. When using the ?Power-out? port, use the included 2-pin wired connector. ***LED Connections*** The LED outputs are separated into ?Left? and ?Right?. You can connect to these using the included 2-pin wired connector, the Red wire connects to the positive of your LED and the Black wire connects to the negative/ground of your LED. ***Note the ?Left? & ?Right? LEDs are PWM controlled, and through coding can have their intensity adjusted as well as the option to have them blink. ***Input Switch Connection*** The Input is triggered by a momentary ?Normally Open? type switch, which you provide. You can use the provided 2-pin wired (either Green wire set or Blue wire set) connector to add your switch for controlling board operation. *** You cannot use a ?Normally Closed? Type Switch. If using a Limit switch, you must wire to the ?C? (common) and ?NO? (Normally Open) terminals on the switch. *** ***Board Operation*** The ESP32-C3 is already pre-flashed with the Crash Works 3D code. Once you have correctly wired your board to your Servos and LEDs, upon initial power up the LEDs will blink and the servos will move to their home position. Upon the 1st input (button press from switch) it will let the system know you are ready for operation. Every button press after this will trigger a function to either open the helmet (turn the LEDs off) ?or- close the helmet (turn the LEDs on). If you ?Double Tap? the Button it will turn ?Off / On? the LED eyes. ***Note the USB port on the ESP32-C3 is only used for programming; you should never power the board by connecting your power supply (USB Power bank, battery, etc.) directly to the USB Port on the ESP32-C3. Also when uploading new code to the ESP32-C3 it is recommended that you disconnect the attached Servos, to prevent them from drawing power from the computer. The servos can be reconnected once you are done uploading the new code, and have disconnected from both the computer and the ESP32-C3?s USB port*** *** Additional Components (Not included) ***MG90S Servos (Recommended: Tower Pro 180 degree)LED Eyes (Search online for ?cosplay led eyes?)Momentary Switch (NO - ?Normally Open? type)Charging rated USB-Mini cable (i.e. GPS, cell phone charging)Power bank (Recommended: 5V 2A or 5V 3A)Speaker 8?(ohm) / 3 Watt Maximum *** Note: We do not recommend or support powering the board using AA or AAA batteries *** ***Resources*** If you are looking for 3D printable file kits for Iron Man helmet motorization, you can visit the Crash Works 3D Thingiverse page, which contains kits and documentation for the Iron Man MK7, Iron Man MK46, and Iron Man MK85 helmets: https://www.thingiverse.com/crashworks3d/designs We do not provide technical support on eBay.
